Chapter 463: Opponents
"If they're just trying to cheat money out of the Flowing Cloud Society, then they're probably a bunch of fools."
Everyone had arrived, and a private room on the second floor of the welcome building became lively, and everyone sat around a table to discuss the matter.
Shen Leng said: "I looked at the warehouse before, and at most the middle fifth of the goods in that pile of goods are ice, let's assume it is ice for the time being...... Stolen one-fifth of the goods to find Liuyun will claim compensation, but what about the ruined ones? It's their reputation that has been ruined, and if they really have negotiated with many shops in the city, wouldn't the money they make from the delivery far exceed the money they paid for the price compensation from the Liuyun Society? ”
"I've seen it, and that rice paper is really good rice paper."
Shen Leng said: "Although my handwriting is average, I can still recognize the quality of rice paper." ”
"Appeal ......"
The crowd shouted in unison.
Shen Leng didn't blush, he could even say things like writing in general, what else was there to blush.
Even the tea master felt embarrassed for his own masters.
"So what?"
Ye Liuyun, who was sitting at the top, took a sip of tea and asked, "What is their purpose?" ”
"Maybe it's for the Liuyun Society, so that the brothers don't investigate this case recently, it's enough for a few of us to investigate."
Shen Leng said: "There may be an accident recently." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Fang ran in from outside, and his face was a little wrong: "Proprietor, something happened to our people, and the brothers who arranged to investigate the dog basket in the south of the city were ambushed, killing and wounding seven or eight people. ”
Ye Liuyun's eyes lit up.
"What about the brothers?"
"Brought it back."
White Fang gritted his teeth as he spoke, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
It's almost the New Year, less than a month before the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the brothers of the Liuyun Society can lose seven or eight people at once, and this news makes people feel uncomfortable immediately.
"I'll take a look."
Ye Liuyun got up to leave, Shen Leng let out a long breath, it was still a little late.
"The stray knife is so blatantly showing its signboard, it is deliberately aimed at the Liuyun Society, if nothing else, that trading house may have colluded with them."
"Let's go."
Black Eyes glanced at White Fang: "Dongfu Street." ”
The shop of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank is on Dongfu Street, but the people of the Liuyun Club have never been there, and when they contacted them, the people of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank said that their store was still under renovation, so they did not entertain customers, and it was estimated that the store could be renovated after the year, but there should be people from the Los Angeles Commercial Bank in that place.
Shen Leng They left the welcome building and went straight to Dongfu Street, when they arrived, it happened to be noon, and there was hardly anyone on the street.
The shop of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank is located in the middle of Dongfu Street, originally this was a silk shop, it is said that the people of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank bought it at a high price, with the land price of Chang'an City, Dongfu Street is a prosperous place, but I am afraid that the silver spent is not much different from the silver that Liuyun will accompany them.
Such a big investment, if you think about it, is it really just to cheat some silver?
The shopkeeper of the Chang'an City store of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank is called Wu Anshui, a middle-aged man who looks about forty years old, his hair has thinned, his stomach is slightly raised, and his face looks a little yellow.
He didn't know Shen Leng, but he knew Black-Eyed and White Fang, and when he saw the two big names of Liuyunhui, he hurriedly greeted them.
"Two masters, I was just about to send someone, but you came first."
Wu Anshui laughed with him, and he could see that his eyes were full of guilt.
"We have found out about the wharf warehouse, it is our own people who do it, those guys colluded with the hired coolies, and exchanged the ice for the goods, this thing really makes you laugh, our proprietor means that Liuyun will accompany the silver of the trading house and let me send someone back as soon as possible, and send two more to express our apologies, and the business will rely on Liuyun to help take care of it in the future."
The words were sincere, and there was nothing wrong with the expression on his face, even an experienced person with black eyes and white teeth couldn't see the falsehood, and Shen Leng couldn't see it.
So several people couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, aren't the Los Angeles Commercial Bank and the Wandering Knife in the same group?
Wu Anshui didn't notice that a few of them looked at each other, still lowered his head and said politely: "What the proprietor means is that in two nights, find a place to invite a few masters to have a meal, and the proprietor will personally apologize, and the few people in the trading house who are guarding and stealing have been arrested and sent to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, I'm really embarrassed, I have worked hard for so many days, who would have thought that it was our own people who had a problem." ”
He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "How many masters, come in the shop and have a cup of tea?" It hasn't been decorated yet, it's a little dirty, don't dislike it, and there is no cash in the shop, so the silver to Liuyun will have to wait for tomorrow, and I will take someone to the ticket number to exchange and then send it to Liuyunhui. ”
The black eyes looked at Shen Leng, Shen Leng shook his head slightly, and the black eyes immediately smiled: "Since you have found out by yourself, it is okay, we also have other things to do, so we will not bother." ”
After saying that, he hugged his fists, and several people turned to leave, and the murderous aura they had held back before couldn't be vented.
"You can see it, it's true."
Shen Leng frowned slightly: "At least Wu Anshui is not fake. ”
"If it's someone from their Los Angeles business firm who wants to target the Liuyun Society, why bother? Didn't we think about things complicated from the beginning, the people of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank have nothing to do with the wandering knife at all, from beginning to end, these are two separate things and not entangled, the people of the Los Angeles Commercial Bank were cheated by their own buddies, and those guys may really not know the reputation of our Liuyun Society......"
"Where's the coolies?"
Shen Leng looked at the black eyes who spoke: "People who beg for a living on the docks of Chang'an City all year round, don't you know if Liuyun will be provoked?" ”
"Maybe someone will take risks for money."
"Unless they don't want to die."
Shen Leng thought for a while: "Go to the south of the city and have a look." ”
Most of the people living in the south of the city are ordinary people, and the coolies who beg for a living at the wharf also live here, the east of the city is not rich and expensive, only the south of the city is close to the wharf and the living expenses are relatively low, but Daning is strong, and the ordinary people's homes are mostly small rich families, and most of the coolies who are willing to do coolies at the wharf are people from other countries, so the stray knife will start from the wharf.
"In fact, the suppression of stray knives at the beginning was not so thorough."
Black-eyed said as he walked: "The people who participated in the stray knife, six or seven out of ten were actually not Jianghu guests, they were really coolies who begged for life, but if they didn't join the stray knife, they would be bullied, and the stray knife also needed more people to be strong, you should know that when the stray knife was destroyed, there were not many people who could really fight." ”
White Fang nodded: "So after the initial screening, we didn't look for most of the coolies who joined the Wandering Knife, the Wandering Knife has been extinguished, they have self-knowledge, but they didn't expect it to be resurrected." ”
After arriving in the south of the city, a few people walked around casually, and they had already entered the moon, except for the market, there were a little more people, and most of the people were willing to nest in their hot homes, and few people walked around the streets.
The place where the accident happened was not far from the market, and the blood on the ground was still there.
The people of the Liuyun Club are still there.
"Many vendors in the market have seen that a group of masked knife men rushed out of the alley and attacked our people, judging from their outfits and the red cloth strips tied to the knives, they are indeed exactly the same as the stray knife people before."
"Why are you here?"
Shen Leng frowned.
There are no people on the nearby streets, but they choose to start in a place where there are more people, and the vendors in the market will see it clearly, is it deliberately for people to see?
"Provocation?"
Black-eyed frowned: "Deliberately let people see it, and then tell us that it was their stray knife people who did it." ”
Not far from them, in an ordinary house, the room was very warm, the stove was very hot, the young man in the precious robe sat on the chair and leisurely sipped tea, and there were four or five people standing in the room, both men and women, all of whom were ordinary people, and it became unusual to get together.
"The window guards have been sent away."
The bald head standing not far from the young man also had a cyan wolf head tattooed on the top of his head, which looked a little hideous.
"After leaving Chang'an, his subordinates have already eliminated all the people."
The bald head hung his head and said: "Wu Anshui, who is in charge of the shop, is a real businessman, and he really thinks that we are going to make the Los Angeles Commercial Bank bigger, so no matter how the people of the Liuyun Club check, they can't find anything in Wu Anshui at all." ”
Another young man who looks eighteen or nineteen years old is white and fat, like a white steamed bun that has just come out of the pot, such a person looks very festive, basically does not arouse the vigilance of others, and will be happy wherever he goes.
His name also has a happy character, and his name is Wu Xi.
The bald man is called Luo Ying, and the woman next to Luo Ying who looks about thirty years old and has a bit of charm is called Yang Yaoye, except for her, everyone has great respect for the young man and a heartfelt fear, and she is the only one sitting there.
The other man standing beside her looked to be about fifty years old, wearing a very dirty and thick sheepskin jacket and a sheepskin hat on his head, looking no different from the old man who was herding sheep in the countryside, because he really went to herd sheep for fifteen years in order to avoid the pursuit of the Tingwei Mansion, his name was Gao Xue.
In the far corner squatted a young man who was gnawing on sugar cane, who looked to be about twenty years old, and it seemed that he loved to eat this thing, and the sound of smashing his mouth was very loud, which made him look very rustic.
He wore a very clean cloth coat, and in order not to stain his clothes with bagasse and juice, he also wore a cloth around his neck, and he looked like a simple farmer.
But this is a very interesting person, his name is also Leng, Su Leng.
The young man sitting in the center was naturally Bai Xiaoluo, who fled back from Eastern Xinjiang, and Bai Xiaoluo, who had smelled the unusual smell early, did not show up in Eastern Xinjiang at all, he had been watching from the sidelines, watching Li Xiaoran fall into the abyss and never recover.
"The emperor is not so easy to kill."
Bai Xiaoluo suddenly sighed.
Then smiled.
"So I'm going to kill the people he cares about, one by one, I've lost so much, I have to make up for it."
He glanced at the young man who was squatting in the corner and gnawing on sugar cane: "Su Leng, do you want to be Shen Leng?" ”
"I don't want to."
The young man still nibbled on his own sugarcane: "I like to kill." ”
